TOwBOAT EXPLOSION.

The j. C. Risher Bursts Steam Pipe, Kill
ing One Man and Injuring Two Fatally.
PTTTsBURG, April 2.-The main steam
pipe in the towboat J. c. Risher exploded
a few minutes before o'clock this morn
ing with terrific force, shattering the vessel,
killing one man instantly and fatally in
juring two more. The boat was lying at
the Woods Run landing, short distance
below Allegheny City, at the time, and was
preparing to take feet of coal down the
river. A deck hand named Hayes, who
was standing in the cabin just over the
boiler room, was blown through the cabin
roof and instantly killed. Engineer
James Campbell and the fireman, whose
name could not be learned, were terribly
scalded, and cannot recover. The balance
of the crew escaped unhurt. Hayes body
was literally torn to fragments and scat
tered in all directions. Hardly enough re-
mains for the Coroner to hold an inquest
on. The cause of the explosion is not yet
known. The loss will probably not reach
S., 900.
The fireman's name was Edward Dur
gan, of Parkersburg, w. Va. Campbell
and Hayes resided in this vicinity. Risher
& Co. claim the damage to the boat is

Found: A Baby,

Special telegram 10 he Register:
CLARKsBURG, w. VA, May 2.-There
was a startling sensation here this morn
ing upon the finding of a young baby of
but day or so old on the steps of the
residence of Mr.. Geo. Dieson, of this city.
1t is said that note which was left at the
same place explained that the mother was
one Clara Tucker, and that she was not
able to maintain and support it and
wished one Vassar, who was boarding
there, to do so, as she claimed
he was the father. Just exactly what will
be the outcome of the matter cannot be
predicted under the circumstances. The
child will likely become county charge.
Late this evening little son of Mr.. Geo.
Criss fell through the glass in one Of the
large windows in front of the postOflice
building and was badly cut and perhaps
very seriously. Physicians were sum-
mOned, but the exact nature of the in
juries cannot be certainly ascertained IL
is thought the boy will recover.

PARKERsBURG, May 2--Judge Jackson,
of the United States Court, held at Parr
kersburg on Saturday, decided the famous
land suit of Dullner against Farnsworth
and Others, involving about $25, 200. The
case was tried in this city year ago,
when new trial was granted. The bill,
as filed, charged fraudulent transaction on
the part Of Governor Farnsworth and his
associates, some twenty in number, all
residents of Upshur county, on the sale OF
a tract of land in that county 10 Dufner,
of Cleveland, o., for $4,000. 1t alsn
charged that the defendants had no legal
title to the land conveyed, even IL there
were no fraudulent intentions, because OF
older surveys and titles.
Judge Jackson decided that the evidence
did not reveal any fraudulent intentions on
the part of Farnsworth and his associates,
but that they had no legal title TO the land
sold, and that the contract between them
and Duffner should be re$cinded and the
purchase money, over $40, 900, paid by
DufIner, should be returned TO him by
Farnsworth and his associates

THE MAJORITY MUST RULE.


II the Democrats in Joint assembly
tomorrow vote according to the wishes OF
the great majority Of the people Of this
State they will vote for Mr.. CAMDEN. The
Democracy of the State have elected a
majority of the members of their party in
the Legislature who are in favor OF Mr.
CAMDEN. The events of the past few
months show that the sentiments OF the
majority of the people are in favor OF Mr.
CAMDEN's election. In fact be has been
and is now the only candidate with any
following before the Legislature. He or
ganized the Democracy in several counties
of theState last fall and saved his party from
defeat and made it possible for the Demo
Gratis to have q majority sufficient to elect
Senator. II Gealty to party good deserves
recognition no man in the State deserves
better of his party than Mr.. CAMDEN. II
men whOput their shoulders to the wheel,
carve out their own fortune and use il in
developing their native State deserve any
thing from the people, where is the man
in West Virginia who deserves more than
Mr.. CAMDEN? Ii men who stand by the
people are instrumental i'm securing legis-
lation OF so much Importance TO West Viz
ginia as the "lOng and short haul' in the
Interstate Commerce law deserve any
gratitude, where il there man in the
State who deserves "a much rs Mr.. CAM
DEN?
These facts have been mentioned Ofte Il
before, but they are as true as ever and
Mr.. CAMDEN il none the less deserving.
The principal thing that is left to urge
against Mr.. CAMDEN is because he couldn'
make the offices go round. The inyestiga-
tiOn that has been going on in the MINEAR
case, shows that the charge made by Mr..
CAMDES'S enemies, that he was using i'm
proper means to secure his election, is with
out any foundation whatever, and is only
a phantasmagora of some reckless imagina-
tiOns.
All these things are in favor of MIR, CAM
DEN, and there is nothing worth hearing
that could he urged against him. The
large majority Of the people Of the State
want to zee him elected Senator. Why
then should he not be elected?
1t is the duty of the caucus and anti
caucus men to join hands and elect the peO-
ple's choice. Any other course slaps in
the face a man who deserves the gratitude
of his party and indeed of all the peO-
pie of the State. The majority Of
the party aud the majority of the people
are in favor of Mr.. CAMDEN, and the ma
jority must rule. To do otherwise would
bea violation Of the uSages Of DemOe Acy
and a monumental outrage not to be con-
dOned.
